Integrit-E

There's this friend of mine. He's cute, square, and has a really nice personality. Every girl whether they are 2 or 105 like this guy. The thing that is rally awesome though is that he always does the right thing. He has a great deal of integrity. If you have not guest who my friend is. His name is Wall-E. I am not going to ruin the movie for those who have not seen it. I just want to express myself on what a great influence this character is to the new generations to come and even the generations that are here today. Integrity is a trait that not to many people have today. I can say that because I am a security guard at a local mall. Yes, a rent a cop, plastic bacon, and whatever else you want to call me. The kids I see at the mall lack certain things. Some its integrity, others its confidence or just plain sense. The one I'd like to focus on though is Integrity. Through out the movie this character does everything wrong or so its thought. But after looking at the scheme of things we see that he did everything correctly. He stuck up for what he believed in. He stuck up for what he knew what was right. He stuck up for everyone. A story was once told to me that a university president had told a reporter that everyone at his university had Integrity. The reporter asked him to explain himself. He then said if you take myself or any one of my students and put them in a maximum security prison and say nothing to them about rules. They will want out and will try to get out. But if you draw a three foot circle in the dirt. Then ask for my word not to move from that circle and I give you my word. I will stay inside that circle till the day that I die or till you say I can leave. The reporter then understood Integrity with a true sense. Wall-E has that kind of integrity. I hope that we can all learn this lesson or some other good from him and his movie.

Very well put!
Integrity is very hard to find and sometimes difficult to possess.
